Smaller Projects

Witness

We need a Django/Python hacker to work on Witness, a web app for helping us (and anyone else who needs it) make sure person A has agreed to document X. There are loads of applications for this:

  • Proof that a Mozilla contributor has agreed to our Committer’s Agreement
  • Proof that someone has agreed to the IPR policy necessary for contributing to a standards body mailing list
  • Proof that someone has agreed to a trademark licence

This is basically an app to make legal paperwork less of a hassle in open source projects and other places, an idea which we think people will like :-) It has interesting parts to do with BrowserID integration, identity verification, and how you make an electronic record of someone's agreement that will stand up in court. There are a couple of blog posts about it too. If you are interested, contact Gerv.
